I've looked him up in FIFA and I'm afraid it's a "no" from me. Look at these ratings, he's rubbish! FFS

Milan's French striker M'Baye Niang, returning to Italy from the Watford loan, will continue his English adventure and will in all probability be definitive.

According to Sportitalia, the Transalpine has today visited the Verizon Sports Center at Finch Farm, ready to support medical examinations with the over-the-top club in the next few hours. About 18 million euros, in particular 15 fixed-term and 3 bonus-related outcomes. The morning meeting between the Rossoneri and English director Steve Walsh was a very positive result.

'over-the-top club'?! Lol

So does "About 18 million euros, in particular 15 fixed-term and 3 bonus-related outcomes" mean if a five year deal it will cost 15million over that period, so 3 million per year and bonus's for Europe and goals scored.... Not bad really for a squad player?

This one could go either way. From his "highlights package" I see a player there.
Or, he could be a huge waste of money.
 
I seem to recall that at Caen when he first emerged and we were very interested he played as a central striker but when he chose Milan over us he was converted into a striker who mostly played wide.

He was going to be the next big thing but his career appears to be on the slide.

He clearly has talentbut if as others have said he has an attitude problem I am suprised that RK wants to take him on.

If he is Kone's replacement and will start on the bench , fine , anything else I just don't get it.

I think he is young enough to get the brain dead elements out of him and mould him into a good player that will be valuable coming off the bench.

He has got the talent, but I believe he has lost his way and needs firm direction, which he will get from RonKo...

Lets face it, better options off the bench is something we didn't have for a majority of the season
 
I think hes basically an improved replacement for Valencia. Hes not intended to be our main striker, but instead a younger player with issues, but great talent, to come in when needed. Hes an improved backup for us.
 
We seem to be looking at attackers that have pace and are comfortable anywhere across the front 3. Balde Keita would obviously be the best option but it's clear he wants Juve. For a similar price to Niang, and also from the Italian league, we should go for Alejandro 'Papu' Gomez. Would be a much better option to Niang, and someone I could see Lookman learning a heap off due to their similar size and play style. He's a leader, excellent dribbling, has good vision and natural finishing ability. No links just someone I think would be a good shout, at an age that can impact instantly. Currently at Atlanta, a club we should be able to comfortably buy from. 16 goals and 12 assists in the league last season
 

Not that I know to much about Niang, but from what I gather he could have it all if he knuckles down and gets his attitude right, some players that are very good seem to have this problem look at Royston drenthe he was an excellent player, but Moyes couldn't sort his attitude out and look how his career has turned out. But on th other hand look at Balotelli he has similar problems and has helped Nice to champions league. If Koeman gets it right we could have one hell of a player on our hands.
 
They might be looking at him thinking, this lad has been played out wide when he could be a beast as the main striker, let's convert him back to that.

Or he's going to be our Mane, but let's face it probably not as good.
